Product Description
I Ching or the Classic of Change is the world’s oldest and most sophisticated system of wisdom divination, source of the east’s philosophy and culture. It focuses on the part you play in change and transformation. When we experience ourselves as a victim of the changes in our world, we feel isolated and angry. When we become a part of the dialogue Change represents, we feel connected to the creative energy that shapes the world we live in. I Ching: The Symbolic Life gives you direct access to this dialogue through the myth and ritual world Change uses to model the Symbolic Life. Developed through years of scholarship and research and grounded in practical use, it can make Change a part of your daily life. It explains and presents the age-old symbols of I Ching in a step by step way that lets you use the images directly and intuitively. You do not really learn something, you experience something that is capable of working a profound transformation of your thought.

I have been traveling with the I Ching for forty years - mostly using the Wilhelm/Baynes edition and often feeling I was missing something important; enthralled, but wondering if I was always getting the full picture, the full impact of the oracle. It was hit or miss.
Stephen Karcher's research into the early pre-Confusian, Taoist roots of the I Ching, blazes a trail which for myself at least, has opened me to the amazing power of this amazing tool. I would say that this book, and another work of Karcher's - Total I Ching: Myths for Change - are indispensable for any serious student of the I Ching.
